"Mr. Bowe has long been a giving member of our community and remains committed to giving Kansas City his best on and off the field," Regan said. "He is grateful for the support shown by Chiefs fans and promises this incident will not be a distraction to his commitment to excellence on the football field."

"I apologize to the Hunt Family, Coach Reid, my teammates and the Chiefs fans for the distraction I have caused the team this week. Due to the nature of the pending matter, I am unable to make any further comment on the situation," Bowe said in a statement.

Reid confirmed during his news conference that Bowe would start at wide receiver for Sunday's game against the Broncos in Denver.
